He can transform the bleakest moments



Every day can be a struggle, especially for those dealing with serious illness, physical pain, personal bereavement, loss. The demands of ordinary living can threaten to overwhelm us and press in on us, making everything even harder to bear. 


Pain can be unimaginable, intolerable, never ending. Loss can feel so final that all hope is taken away.

It is especially at times like this that the light of God can suddenly, mysteriously and amazingly touch our lives and bring us strength and hope unexpected, so that a new vision become apparent.

It is at times like this when we can suddenly feel God's gracious presence, utterly here with us and feel His gentle touch as He lifts us and carries us most carefully, through the day. 

Always remember He loves and tends to our needs.

He can transform the bleakest moment and save us.

So seek His loving arms for comfort and consolation, his strength to lift us through the most dire of moments. Trust in Him. He is with us, for that is His promise.

We may feel abandonned



We may feel alone

We may feel lost


We may feel unloved 


Or unloveable


And abandoned


But help us know


In the stillness of heart


The truth of Your Love


For each one of us.


Amen

God’s Will



I was struck, again, when praying the Our Father, about  the meaning of ‘Thy Will be done.’ It sounds scary to give your power away, to trust in someone else’s will not your own, but when you reflect on its meaning, it can bring great comfort and deeper understanding. In fact you do not give up your will, rather you reach higher, spiritually.

For us, God’s Will is only ever Love and Mercy, therefore if we align our will with that awesome power of Love, who knows what is possible. Fear  can mask the truth. Exaggerate painful concerned. We can never know the future till it is upon us. Trusting in God’s Will helps us live in confidence and trust that a way will be found, a blessing will come, there is hope even in the most difficult situations.

Absolute need



 I love this prayer, it brings me confidence and strength in difficult times.

When our need is absolute

Your response is total, Lord.
For this we trust and thank you!
Amen

Silence

 


Silence

First

Seems

Empty

Then

You

Find

The sweet

Voice of God

Whispering

In

The 

Completeness

Of 

Beauty

And stillness

And you suddenly know

That

All

Is

Well.
